The NO Bowl payout is, I believe, second to last in the payout amount with only one other bowl paying less. SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!</p>TrueBlue commented on 'Congrats, FIU ...

1) I thought we had the N.O Bowl in the bag (or at least 95% in the bag). It seems the winner of this weeks FIU vs Middle game will go to N.O and the loser to Detroit. Right or Wrong?</p>
<p>2) FIU needs to get a GREAT Travel Package ready for the fans. Make more then one package. Leaving Thur PM, leaving Fri AM, and leaving Fri PM for the working people.. Will this happen?</p>
<p>3) Great job for the Herald. I actually payed the $1.50 today! I wish you guys can start to see the magic this University actually has..</p>
<p>4) What happen to the fire works? How can FIU not have fire works in a day like this.. BIG MISTAKE by FIU!! </p>
<p>Go Golden Panthers!</p>alt7787 commented on 'Congrats, FIU ...

We&#39;ve gotten a lot of lucky breaks this season, including about 3 last night. We could easily be 4-7. I do think it&#39;s flattering that people are even mentioning MC in the UCG coaching search. </p>
<p>I hate to make this a negative post, but I&#39;m really really really disappointed at our school. Yes it was Thanksgiving weekend, but I&#39;m almost certain that there were 20,000 people in Miami that could have showed up to our game. Miamians don&#39;t travel. Whatever, those people that were there sure made it an enjoyable experience.</p>
<p>I&#39;m very excited though! I cant believe this is happening. Our season seemed doomed after our loss to FAU. Now comes the fun part, winning the next two games. Most importantly, winning our bowl game. This game will be on ESPN. On a Saturday night. On primetime! We need to capitalize on this. Let the whole nation see that FIU is on the rise. </p>
<p>Thanks for the write up Adam.</p>panther viscosity commented on 'Congrats, FIU ...

The match up I hope for is in New Orleans against Southern Miss. </p>NYCFIUFan commented on 'Congrats, FIU ...

<p>I was at the game last night, wish more people showed up but I teared up last night after the game. I teared up because I was so happy for our guys. I know how hard those kids worked for this and it is great that they are Champions as a result, they are winners either way.</p>
<p>What is great is that no matter how successful FIU is after this season, the 2010 FIU Panthers are the FIRST to go to a bowl and be Champions, and there is only one first. </p>
<p>I hear people (especially U fans lamenting about their &quot;terrible&quot; year, misery loves company) asking who cares about a SunBelt Championship? Well, those 60+ kids care, the students care,the coaches care and the alumni care, and that is all that matters. Our FAMILY, which FIU is, cares. </p>
<p>GO FIU!!! Beat Middle and lets party and celebrate our successful season!</p>Quijote commented on 'Congrats, FIU ...

If they go to Detroit, they will never want to go to another bowl.</p>
